It wasn't MMA, but Blagoi Ivanov scored plenty of bleeding ink last fall when he defeated Fedor Emelianenko in a Combat Sambo competition. According to Nightmare of Battle, Ivanov will now face Fedor's brother, Aleksander, in a Korean mixed martial arts contest on Sept. 29.

Pretty easy story to follow, though Ivanov is jumping into the deep end of the pool fairly quickly.

If he wins -- which would be a feat considering Aleksander's experience -- a rematch with Fedor seems inevitable.
